Discussion Group bug

[Dwolfe]

The notification email to my hotmail account has a broken link. This is the
second time this has happened. Part of it is the
http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/aspx/notifauth.aspx?url=
I believe is a bad url. It basically does not perform the expected redirect
to the URL attached to it.
http://www.microsoft.com/office/com...yout&mid=6e99797f-22a5-41bb-b09e-185e2171dbe0
The other issue is that this url is partially encoded incorrectly the
actuall url should look like this.

I did not know where to submit this bug so thought I'd do it here.

Do yourself a big favour - DITCH THE WEB INTERFACE!

If you log into the web interface before you click the link, it should take
yoiu to the right place.

I'll report this issue yet again. <sigh>
